TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires whether a visa is required for a six-week visit to Thailand in December. The community responses indicate that visa requirements depend significantly on the traveler's nationality. For users with UK passports, responses generally confirm that they can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 60 days upon arrival. It is advised to check official Thai immigration sources or the Thai Embassy website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

If you are planning to visit another country for 6 weeks in a few weeks, shouldn't you already know the answer?

Google and official Thai websites explaining the matter clearly are a great invention. First you do your initial research and the hard work and then you come to a forum to clear up any unclear details. That's how it works

@Julie *******
it's a no visa entry for 60 days. You don't need a visa.
Lynnette *******
It's a game. We have to guess what passport they are on.
John ********
If you have a English passport then you will be fine to just come, they will give you the 60 day
Steve *********
Depends on your home country. Most Western countries get 60 days without having to apply for anything.
Aaron ********
No
Jan ******************
If your native language also is English, you can enter on a 60 days visa exemption and get a free stamp upon entry.
Javier ***********
@Jan *****************
Please clarify why a visa is issued with English as a native language.
Jan ******************
@Javier **********
A visa itโ€™s not issued if your native language is English, but maybe more correct to say that the majority of the official English speaking countries are entitled to visa exemption.
Stephan ***********
Depends on your passport... if your country is on this list then "no".
